After this guide, you'll have a live documentation site generated from your website and ready to customize.

Before you begin

You need a public website URL to crawl. Docfiy reads your pages and builds an initial docs structure — you don't need to write MDX or clone a repository to get started.

No website yet? During signup you can also start from scratch or import existing docs from GitBook, Notion, or Markdown.

Create your account

Go to app.docfiy.com/signup and create your account.

Generate docs from your website

1

Choose your source

On onboarding, select From a website.

2

Enter your URL

Paste your public site URL (for example https://yourcompany.com). Docfiy derives a subdomain like yourcompany.docfiy.com.

3

Review the analysis

After the crawl finishes, you'll see detected pages, headings, and a preview of how your docs will be structured.

4

Create your docs site

Click Create docs site. Docfiy provisions your site and deploys it to your .docfiy.com subdomain.

View your live site

Your documentation site is available at https://<your-site>.docfiy.com. Find the exact URL on the Overview page in your dashboard.
